I have been very pleased with both my ladies. They have become friends, enjoyable with many similar interests and many laughs.
I look forward to their visits and all the care and understanding. I don't just feel a 'body' but a person with difficulties.
They are always very punctual. Looking forward
to my next visit.

When I had the misfortune to injure my lower back, it was distressing to come to the decision I should no longer drive my car for safety reasons. A friend suggested it would be prudent to have help. Being an independent person this was not easy to accept but realised I had no choice. I could still look
after myself and my home and garden but driving was in another category altogether. So - a visit from 'Home Instead' was arranged. Now a year later, two lovely ladies each make a 2 hr visit every week. They have become not only helpers but friends and have transformed my life - I can't imagine how I could ever cope with shopping, garden centre etc without them. And importantly, I haven't totally lost my independence. Thank you all!

Highly professional; also compassionate and kindly. Aware of specific needs of spinal injury care; kindly and helpful to my wife. All care staff are excellent - lots of laughs, very good at preserving dignity. Our lives have improved steadily since Home Instead Senior Care took us on mid-2015. Very
flexible service.

Carers go above and beyond constantly. Office team are always supportive and flexible. The only agency which offers this level of service and empathy through all carers. We have tried others and Home Instead is leaps and bounds above in every way.

I am one hundred percent satisfied. Everything which I ask them to do is done excellently and cheerfully. I am more or less housebound it is very important to me that who ever visits me is both pleasant and interesting.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.899)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.899) out of 10 for Home Instead (Peterborough Oundle & The Deepings) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.899 for Home Instead (Peterborough Oundle & The Deepings) is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.899

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Home Instead (Peterborough Oundle & The Deepings) is based on 28 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: CAREGiver

Joined: 2018

"I have been working with Home Instead for just over 18 months and love it. Not long after starting with the company alongside my usual weekly hours, I took on the 'On Call' role 1 in every 4 weekends. The On-Call CAREGiver role involves me visiting clients that have asked for an extra visit, to cover for CAREGivers if they are unable to work for any reason and to be able to offer up anything at short notice to help clients or family members. This gives me a great opportunity to visit new clients, see new faces and hopefully make a difference in their day.
Just like my regular visits with my own clients this sometimes can involve personal care, helping make their day easier, do their hair, nails, maybe a puzzle or watch their favourite programme with them, bake a cake or simply just offering companionship.
Knowing you sometimes do things that may seem quite small to some people can be something incredibly substantial to others. Coming away knowing you have been able to help someone who could be quite vulnerable is such a humble feeling. In these unprecedented times we could be the only voice they hear that day or face they see as some people are unable to even see their loved ones which over time becomes much harder and being with each client for either an hour or 2 or maybe more gives them something to look forward to. The most rewarding part of being an on-call caregiver is knowing I make a difference.
